Book What Is the Evidence on the Role of the Arts in Improving Health and Well Being

Download or read book What Is the Evidence on the Role of the Arts in Improving Health and Well Being written by Daisy Fancourt and published by . This book was released on 2019-06 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, there has been a major increase in research into the effects of the arts on health and well-being, alongside developments in practice and policy activities in different countries across the WHO European Region and further afield. This report synthesizes the global evidence on the role of the arts in improving health and well-being, with a specific focus on the WHO European Region. Results from over 3000 studies identified a major role for the arts in the prevention of ill health, promotion of health, and management and treatment of illness across the lifespan. The reviewed evidence included study designs such as uncontrolled pilot studies, case studies, small-scale cross-sectional surveys, nationally representative longitudinal cohort studies, community-wide ethnographies and randomized controlled trials from diverse disciplines. The beneficial impact of the arts could be furthered through acknowledging and acting on the growing evidence base; promoting arts engagement at the individual, local and national levels; and supporting cross-sectoral collaboration.

Download or read book Music and Manipulation written by Steven Brown and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of human civilization, music has been used as a device to control social behavior, where it has operated as much to promote solidarity within groups as hostility between competing groups. Music is an emotive manipulator that influences attitude, motivation and behavior at many levels and in many contexts. This volume is the first to address the social ramifications of music’s behaviorally manipulative effects, its morally questionable uses and control mechanisms, and its economic and artistic regulation through commercialization, thus highlighting not only music’s diverse uses at the social level but also the ever-fragile relationship between aesthetics and morality.

Book The Effect of Harp Music on Heart Rate  Mean Blood Pressure  Respiratory Rate  and Body Temperature in the African Green Monkey

Download or read book The Effect of Harp Music on Heart Rate Mean Blood Pressure Respiratory Rate and Body Temperature in the African Green Monkey written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effectiveness of recorded harp music as a tool for relaxation for nonhuman primates (NHP) is explored in this study. Konigsberg Instruments Model T27F-1B cardiovascular telemetry devices were implanted into nine African green monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops). After post-surgical recovery, animals were exposed to recorded harp music. Telemetry data were collected on heart rate, mean blood pressure, respiratory rate, and body temperature for a 30-minute baseline period before music exposure; a 90-minute period of music exposure; and a 90-minute postexposure period, where no music was played. The results showed no statistical differences in heart rate, mean blood pressure, respiratory rate, and body temperature among pre-exposure, exposure, and postexposure periods. The authors conclude that the lack of response in these African green monkeys may be attributable to their generally calm demeanor in captivity. Experiments with a more excitable species, such as the rhesus macaque, might demonstrate a significant relaxation response to music.

Book The Effects of Music Therapy on Comfort in the Mechanically Ventilated Patient in the Intensive Care Unit

Download or read book The Effects of Music Therapy on Comfort in the Mechanically Ventilated Patient in the Intensive Care Unit written by Jamie Marie Besel and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this pilot study was to assess the effects of music therapy on comfort in acute mechanically ventilated patients in the Intensive Care Unit. Mechanical ventilation leads to decreased comfort. Pain and anxiety may increase during this treatment modality, and the literature suggests this may directly affect patient comfort levels. Music therapy as a nursing intervention within the context of comfort, pain, and anxiety of mechanically ventilated patients was investigated. This quasi-experiemental study used a pre-test and post-test design with subjects serving as their own control. The convenience sample consisted of 2 men and 3 women who were mechanically ventilated and fit the selection criteria. Dependent variables measured included comfort, pain, and anxiety. Physiologic dependent measures included heart rate, respiratory rate, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure collected at timed intervals. Comfort was measured using a modified version of the Hospice Comfort Questionnaire. Pain was measured using the Numerical Graphic Rating Pain Scale. Anxiety was measured using the Faces Anxiety Scale. Important preliminary quantitative results are provided by this pilot study. The mean, standard deviation, significance, and paired t-tests were compared for each tool to determine changes in scoring before and after the intervention and control. This was also completed for physiological data including systolic and diastolic blood pressure, respiratory rate, and heart rate. Paired t-tests showed no significant mean differences between two points of measurement on systolic, diastolic, heart rate, and respiratory rate in both the intervention and control groups. Comfort, anxiety, and pain scores before and after the intervention and control also did not demonstrate significance. The small sample size makes generalization of these findings impossible to the entire population of acute mechanically ventilated patients in Billings, Montana.

Book The Effects of Music on Pain

Download or read book The Effects of Music on Pain written by Jin Hyung Lee and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was twofold: to critically review existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses on the topic of music and pain; and to systematically review and conduct a meta-analysis of clinical trials investigating the effect of music on pain encompassing a wide range of medical diagnoses, settings, age groups, and types of pain. For the review of systematic reviews, the author conducted a comprehensive search and identified 14 systematic reviews and meta-analyses. These studies were critically analyzed to present a comprehensive overview of findings, to evaluate methodological quality of the reviews, to determine issues or gaps in the literature, and to generate research questions for the following meta-analysis. For the meta-analysis, the author conducted electronic searches of 12 databases and a handsearch of related journals and reference lists of relevant systematic reviews, with partial restrictions on design (i.e., randomized controlled trials); language (i.e., English, German, Korean, and Japanese); year of publication (i.e., 1995 to 2014) and intervention (i.e., music therapy and music medicine). Analyzed studies included 87 music medicine (MM) and 10 music therapy (MT) trials; eighty-nine of the included studies involved adults and eight trials focused on children. In terms of the types of pain, there were 51 trials on acute, 34 on procedural, and 12 on cancer or chronic pain; the trials were conducted in over 20 different medical specialty areas. For the assessment of study quality, I used the risk of bias tool developed by the Cochrane collaboration, and pooled data from the included studies were analyzed using the Revman 5.3 software according to the effects of music on levels of pain intensity, amount of analgesic use, and changes in vital signs. The results indicated that music interventions resulted in a significant reduction of 1.13 units on 0-10 scales and a small to moderate pain reducing effect on other scales (SMD = -0.39). Participants in the music group experienced a significantly lower level of emotional distress from pain (MD = -10.8), and required significantly fewer anesthetics (SMD = -0.56), opioids (SMD = -0.24), and non-opioid medications (SMD = -0.54). Moreover, the music group showed statistically significant decreases in heart rate of 4.25 bpm, systolic blood pressure of 3.34 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure of 1.18 mmHg, and respiration rate of 1.46 breaths per minute. Findings from several analyses of moderator variables suggest: MT has a stronger effect in reducing self-rated pain intensity than MM; MT is more effective in reducing chronic/cancer pain than other types of pain, but MM seems to be more effective in managing procedural pain; children benefit more from music interventions than do adults, and more from MT than MM; providing different levels of choices in the selection of music yields different outcomes for MM; having a rationale for selection of music greatly improves the treatment outcome for MM; and an active MT approach is more effective in relieving perceived levels of pain than a passive MT approach. The results from the current meta-analysis demonstrate that music interventions may have beneficial effects on pain, emotional distress from pain, use of anesthetics and pain killers, and vital signs including heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and respiration rate. However, these results need to be interpreted with caution due to highly heterogeneous outcomes among the included studies. Considering all the possible benefits, music interventions may provide an effective complimentary approach for the relief of acute, procedural and cancer/chronic pain in the medical setting.

Book Handbook of Music and Emotion

Download or read book Handbook of Music and Emotion written by Patrik N. Juslin and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2011-03-17 with total page 1983 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music's ability to express and arouse emotions is a mystery that has fascinated both experts and laymen at least since ancient Greece. The predecessor to this book 'Music and Emotion' (OUP, 2001) was critically and commercially successful and stimulated much further work in this area. In the years since publication of that book, empirical research in this area has blossomed, and the successor to 'Music and Emotion' reflects the considerable activity in this area. The Handbook of Music and Emotion offers an 'up-to-date' account of this vibrant domain. It provides comprehensive coverage of the many approaches that may be said to define the field of music and emotion, in all its breadth and depth. The first section offers multi-disciplinary perspectives on musical emotions from philosophy, musicology, psychology, neurobiology, anthropology, and sociology. The second section features methodologically-oriented chapters on the measurement of emotions via different channels (e.g., self report, psychophysiology, neuroimaging). Sections three and four address how emotion enters into different aspects of musical behavior, both the making of music and its consumption. Section five covers developmental, personality, and social factors. Section six describes the most important applications involving the relationship between music and emotion. In a final commentary, the editors comment on the history of the field, summarize the current state of affairs, as well as propose future directions for the field. The only book of its kind, The Handbook of Music and Emotion will fascinate music psychologists, musicologists, music educators, philosophers, and others with an interest in music and emotion (e.g., in marketing, health, engineering, film, and the game industry). It will be a valuable resource for established researchers in the field, a developmental aid for early-career researchers and postgraduate research students, and a compendium to assist students at various levels. In addition, as with its predecessor, it will also attract interest from practising musicians and lay readers fascinated by music and emotion.
